What financial protections do you need when you own your own private practice? In today’s Feelings and Finances episode, Linzy answers a question from Katie, a therapist transitioning to full-time private practice. Katie is wondering whether she should focus on building an emergency savings fund or invest in disability insurance, especially since she’s the provider in her family.

Linzy discusses the importance of understanding your personal financial situation and making thoughtful decisions about insurance and savings. She highlights the value of disability insurance and life insurance as essential safeguards, especially when you’re the primary income earner. Linzy also shares her own experience with insurance and offers advice on how to balance building a savings cushion with purchasing insurance to ensure your financial stability.

If you’re a therapist trying to figure out how to protect yourself financially while running your practice, this episode offers essential tips for managing risk and building stability. You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of how to create a plan that ensures your practice remains sustainable and your financial future secure.
